Unit 4: Gene Expression Review

Where does transcription take place?

• nucleus
• cytoplasm
• ribosome

One difference between DNA and RNA is that....

• Only RNA has the base Uracil
• only RNA contains the base Thymine

DNA contains the template to make RNA

• True

• False

Which RNA carries amino acids to the ribosome

• rRNA

• tRNA

• mRNA

codons are located on __________

• mRNA

• tRNA

• rRNA

• snRNA

What is rRNA?

• rRNA is a type of DNA found in the nucleus.
• rRNA is responsible for transporting amino acids to the ribosome.
• rRNA is a form of messenger RNA that carries genetic information.
• rRNA is ribosomal RNA, it makes up the ribosome

What is a missense mutation?

• a mutation that results in a premature stop codon.

• a deletion of a nucleotide in a gene.

• a mutation that results in a single amino acid change in a protein.

• a genetic mutation that does not affect protein function.
